Hooks or functions I can call to get specific post info?

G’day Merv, great plugin, thanks a bunch. I’ve just purchased and setup the staff directory plugin and am trying to integrate the directory archive and single templates into my theme.

Forgive me if this is a silly question, but are there any PHP functions or action hooks that I can call to echo out just the information I want from the current staff member while in the loop?

For example <?php echo the_staff_bio(); ?> or something along those lines…

I noticed that the single-directory template is constructed with a single action: do_action('epl_sd_single_content');. Is there someway I can edit this output (more than just styling)?

I guess the bigger question I’m asking is: If I intend to make significant changes to the layouts, is it wiser to do it all through overriding your existing styles or generating my own output loops and templates? I feel like the latter is a better move for safeguarding against changes from updates in the future but I’m not sure how viable it is?

I’d really appreciate your insight, if you have the time.

Cheers,
Jamie
